Yeah, since Victor Moses and Neil Warnock left the team they haven't been the same. They're in a real tailspin, right now it doesn't look good for them getting out if the relegation zone and the team's administrators have annouced that the team doesn't have the finances to even exist past the end of this season without a new owner.

It hasn't been a good weekend for Palace or its fans.

I watched the Chelsea game to the fourth goal, can't believe Zhirkov hasn't been playing for Chelsea this year. What a talent he is. Malouda is a great player as well.

A couple of those goals by Malouda were just beautiful.

Yeah not knowing if your team is even going to exist next season -- it ain't fun.

Still, I figure it must be worse for the local fans, the type who are fans because Palace is the club of the area they grew up in. I'd imagine for some of them Palace might be the only club they like. If the worst comes, I'll at least be able to still cheer for Aston Villa.

I can't imagine what this situation is like for those fans who are fans of palace and no other team.

It must just make you hate football. Saying that I've been to a few F.C United matches, and they're lower league, semi pro club, and they have a right laugh. Perhaps an AFC Palace team would join the lower leagues.

Hate the sport? No, its still really fun to watch and that's not going to suddenly stop being a fact.

I'm being realistic about this situation. I've been a fan of Palace since I've been able to follow British football, way back in the early 90s. If they cease to exist its going to feel strange to follow next season without them, and yes it will really, really suck. Life will go on though and there are still other teams that I like. My passion about cheering for the aforementioned Aston Villa doesn't come close to my passion about cheering for Palace, but I won't suddenly stop feeling the need to cheer for Villa if Palace isn't there.

That would be cool, AFC Wimbledon has really moved up the standings since Wimbledon FC moved and became M.K. Dons. I could only hope the same thing would happen for an AFC Crystal Palace.
